How can we encourage our kids to have follow through and encourage a gritty attitude in life?

It’s been 6 weeks since I tested my vertical. My original numbers were:

May 30th:
Standing – 9’7″
Running Jump – 10’1/2″

July 4th:
Standing – 9″11′
Running Jump – 10’6″

I gained 5.5 inches in 6 weeks of training. Listen to this episode as I go through the changes I made to my workouts to achieve this type of results.

I also discuss getting stronger without training specific muscle groups.

One individual may use a certain set of muscles more while walking, running, or jumping than another person doing the exact same activity. What I have learned is to achieve peak jumping performance, training the brain to use the proper muscle groups rather than just the ones your body has naturally developed over the years you have lived is beneficial as well as critical to gaining that 35 inch vertical.

Training the brain is one topic discussed.

I also dive deeper into the difference between bodybuilders and powerlifters. Which one you should emulate in your quest to peak vertical jumping.

And then my tip for the day on setting your mind before any activity can ultimately make or break your results.

Glad you are along with me on this journey!

When you jump train, do you intend to leave the session completely gassed? To the point of wanting to throw up?

Is you body built perfectly for plyometrics and bouncing, but then it folds under any kind of weight?

These and other top vertical jump training mistakes are discussed and uncovered in this week’s podcast episode.

New deadlift max reached. Hit my initial goal of being able to deadlift 305 lbs. Now on to new goals of deadlifting 2x my body weight and squatting 1.5x my body weight. For me that equals:

Deadlift: 340lbs
Squat: 255lbs

Totally achievable.

Vertical Tested, listen to the end for my first official results!
